As we close in on Wednesday's big game, some number of Xavier alumni who happen to also love golf were fairly well tuned into the Northern Trust Open this past weekend at the Riviera Country Club in LA (Pacific Palisades). Jason Kokrak, Class of 2008, only one of 3 people to win the Ohio Amateur twice, came up just short to Bubba Watson yesterday, having held a two stroke lead with 4 holes to go.
He's yet to win on the tour, but he hits the ball as long as Watson and Dustin Johnson. You may see his name as a winner sometime this year.
